🟢 3 week turnaround

The Scandi Orthopedic Grade 4 Hock and Tarsal Splint is a state-of-the-art support that is fully customised to your dog’s specific measurements. The Grade 4 Splint is excellent for dogs with severe hock hyperextension, leg fractures, partial hock / tarsal ligament, hock weakness or tendon injuries. This Grade 4 Splint is probably one of the best in class splints on the market if you want to immobilise your dog's leg for a full recovery fully, or more permanent hock support.

This splint comes with or without the paw section, this will depend on what injury type your dog has. This splint differs from the Grade 3 Hock support as you must scan your dog's leg using your phone. It will then take 5 to 7 working days to make. Scandi is a leading maker of customised splints for dogs, so this splint will fit like a glove.

This splint can be adjusted and adapted to the desired level of movement with a stop-band and/or motion limiter (extra cost) for controlled rehabilitation or as extra insurance after delicate surgery. It comes with or without the shoe part. Please note, phalanges with osteoarthritis always require Grade 3 or Grade 4 with paw included, since stabilisation of the paw will be necessary.

Your vet or physiotherapist will need to place your order. Please contact us if you need further information about the ordering process.

Important: This splint is non-refundable due to its customisable properties. Please get in touch and we can help before ordering.

Scanning
You will need to rent or buy the Scanning Rig. This is an important step to get a good scan as a bad scan will likely mean you need to book a second vet appointment which can be expensive.

Process:

  1. Make your order including renting for rig
  2. We email you important information asap
  3. Scan your dog's leg (your vet)
  4. Splint is made and posted to you

Important: This product is not included in any website discount as it is a handmade custom brace.

We can recommend a vet who can apply this splint. Get in touch and we can let you know the closest vet to you. Our email is: woof@zoomadog.co.uk

Types of Grade 4 best for...

  • Rigid Tarsal Splint - Best for general tarsal injuries where support is needed. If a dog has severe instability, arthritis in the tarsal joint or a failed arthrodesis. This product is more durable than Grade 3 and can help to offload and stabilise the tarsal joint. This does not come with an articulated rotation device.
  • Articulated Tarsal Splint - If a dog has instability, inflammation or post-operation. Collateral ligament injury. Side instability tarsal joint
  • Hyperextension Tarsal Splint - Light to moderate hyperextension
  • Rigid Tarsal Rigid Metatarsal Splint - If a dog has severe instability, arthritis in the tarsal or metatarsal joint or a failed arthrodesis. This product is more durable than Grade 3 and can help to offload and stabilise the tarsal and metatarsal joint (paw). You can use it instead of a cast and for fractures. This does not come with an articulated rotation device.
  • Articulated Tarsal Rigid Metatarsal Splint - If a dog has severe instability, inflammation or postop. Collateral ligament injury. Side instability tarsal joint or/and metatarsal (paw). If the also have a arthritis in the paw this will stabilise the tarsal and off load the paw. We also use this product with a stop strap for tarsal hyperextension and that is when dogs have severe tarsal hyperextension and side instability (varus/valgus) this product is better than tarsal hyperextension with paw
  • Articulated Tarsal Articulated Metatarsal Splint - If a dog has severe instability, inflammation or postop. Collateral ligament injury. Side instability tarsal joint or/and metatarsal (paw)
  • Hyperextension Tarsal Rigid Metatarsal Splint - Moderate to severe hyperextension, your dog needs support all the way down to the paw as the tarsal is too weak to hold itself

“Very disappointing quality for a £1,000 custom orthosis”

I purchased a custom orthosis for my dog costing around £1,000 and unfortunately I am very disappointed with what I received.

The main issue is that the product looks very different from what is shown on the website. The design and overall finish appear extremely basic and not what I expected based on the advertising and description provided before purchase.

For a product at this price, I expected a much higher level of workmanship and a clearer explanation of what the final orthosis would actually look like. When ordering online, customers rely on the information and images provided, and in this case the product I received did not match those expectations.

The functionality may be standard for a rigid orthosis, but the quality of the finish and the lack of clear explanation beforehand were very disappointing, especially considering the cost.

I hope the company improves transparency about what customers will actually receive and ensures the quality reflects the high price being charged.

Thank you for your feedback. We have confidence in the quality of Scandi’s custom splints, and I’m sorry the appearance and finish of yours did not match what you expected from our website.

To look into your concerns, I spoke with you by phone and contacted the vet who fitted the splint. The vet advised me that it fitted well at the appointment, although I appreciate that your concerns also related to the product’s quality and finish.

Your payment has since been refunded in full. I understand that this does not undo the frustration you experienced during the process.

Kind regards,
Joss
